  1. 1. Study on the Earth’s Surface Mass Variations using Satellite Gravimetry Observations

    Author : Hadi Amin; Mohammad Bagherbandi; Lars Sjöberg; Faramarz Nilfouroushan; Martin Horwath; Högskolan i Gävle; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; geodetic reference system; geoid potential; global vertical datum; climate change; global warming; mass change; ice melting; sea-level change; remote sensing; satellite gravimetry; geodetiska referenssystem; geopotential; globala vertikala datum; klimatförändring; global uppvärmning; massförändring; issmältning; havsnivåförändring; fjärranalys; satellitgravimetri;

    Abstract : Our complex planet is continuously undergoing temporal and spatial changes. In this context, ongoing processes in the Earth subsystems (geosphere, biosphere, cryosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere) cause changes in the gravity field of the Earth across a wide range of temporal and spatial scales.

  2. 2. Contributions of Satellite Geodesy to Post-Glacial Rebound Research

    Author : Seyed Mehdi Shafiei Joud; Lars E. Sjöberg; Mohammad Bagherbandi; Martin Horwath; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Glacial Isostatic Adjustment GIA ; gravimetric GIA modelling; satellite geodesy; Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment GRACE ; independent component analysis ICA ; Geodesy and Geoinformatics; Geodesi och geoinformatik;

    Abstract : Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) is a global and long-term process in the Earth, which began 21.5 millennia ago, according to many ice history modellers. One way to understand the processes of the Earth’s interior, the crustal deformation, and a key correction to estimate the climatological parameters is obtained by studying GIA. READ MORE

  3. 3. Regional Geoid Determination Methods for the Era of Satellite Gravimetry : Numerical Investigations Using Synthetic Earth Gravity Models

    Author : Jonas Ågren; Lars E. Sjöberg; Zdenek Martince; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Earth sciences; geoid determination; GOCE; synthetic earth gravity models; kernel modification; downward continuation; Geovetenskap; Earth sciences; Geovetenskap;

    Abstract : It is the purpose of this thesis to investigate different regional geoid determination methods with respect to their feasibility for use with a future GOCE satellite-only Earth Gravity Model (EGM). This includes investigations of various techniques, which involve different approximations, as well as the expected accuracy. READ MORE
